    Default Gaming Headset Question

    Hi,
    I am currently looking at buying the Tritton X180 gaming headset to use for my PC and PS3.
    i know how to easily connect it to my PC, but it seems to use the headset on the PS3 you need a TV with AV ports on it, well i play my PS3 using my PC monitor and it only has a HDMI port and the port for PC hook up and a green port to allow you to hear audio from my PC, my monitor is the Hanspree XMS : (http://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Displ...roductId=33071)
    Is there any way to use this headset with my PS3 and still play it through HDMI on this monitor?
    And how do I set it up?
    Thanks for any help.

    Does anyone have any ideas or have used the Tritton X180's with a TV/Monitor using HDMI?

    This headset is confusing, on the page it says its a standard 3.5mm connection(which would mean there is no way to plug it into the PS3) but it says it has a detachable USB microphone for PS3 use. Basically there is no way to output sound to the headset unless it comes with a special adapter for the PS3 like Turtle beach headsets for the Xbox. Also if your monitor has a headphone jack(green 3.5mm jack) it may route the sound from the HDMI to the headphone buts its no guarantee.

    Thanks, it should connect to the ps3 as it says it is compatible, i think i might need to buy a HDMI to female RCA cable to make it work.
